I'm feeling kind of stuck in a place I don't want to be.
I know God is teaching me many new things ranging from trusting Him, listening, allowing myself to hear Him speak, to being used by Him. Growing in Faith and learning to step out of my comfort zone.
Life is throwing me curve balls and I just don't know what to do but I pray and pray so I hope God moves and things change.
Growing up is more difficult every day...not so much fun but Praise God for He is in control.
Still stuck in a transition period and I don't know when it's going to end.
I've had parts of the following scripture stuck in my head for the past couple of days.
Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."
I wonder why it's been stuck in my head. I have no idea.
Praise God for His Word and for prayer.
I went to prayer last night and it was awesome. I love when the presence of the Lord is heavy. Praying for people and also receiving prayer. God will move, heal, and comfort. Amen.

God's Creation is Beautiful
This past weekend I went to Ohio Fall Breakaway to babysit the Pastors kids.
After I put the kids to bed Saturday night I went on a walk outside. I was in the middle of a field and looked up and the sky was so amazing. I saw the most stars I've ever seen. It was beautiful. I was in awe of God's incredible creation. I teared up a little. I wish I could of seen the moon but I think it was too cloudy. The stars seemed so close even though they are billions of miles away. It was so cool. I felt close to God when I was out in that field alone with the stars, it was amazing.
I realized a lot that night. I realized how much I've grown in the past few years. I learned a lot about how I've changed in the manner of taking care of children and seeing that I'm actually really good at it and can come up with some awesome ideas to play. I came up with the idea for the kids to make their own boardgames. They were based off of candy land. It was pretty awesome and I know they had fun. We also wrote up a list to go on a nature/treasure hunt but never got around to it but one of the kids did find some wild mushrooms which was on the list.
Baby-sitting totally prepares you in some ways for your own family whenever that happens in my life I'll be semi-ready to handle it.
I had fun! It was a nice change from my daily life.
It was also nice to see friends and meet new people when I wasn't watching the kids. :-)
